Winter Foyer 2017

After we put the Hummel Nativity away I pondered whether I wanted to do something very wintery here or not. I decided not:) I brought back the palm tree lamp that I love but placed it at the other end of the credenza. I decided to feature this water bearer, inherited from my in-laws and a favorite piece of mine.
 I also wanted to bring in a touch of leopard, actually I guess these candle sticks are more tortoise. I raised one to create different heights and added 2 beautiful smelling candles to greet our guests.
 A blue and white jar and my winter swans from Longwood Gardens complete the vignette.

 I placed some faux ivy around the candle sticks and nestled the other swan in the ivy.








The lamp and credenza give of a pretty glow at night. Thanks for stopping by. I hope yor weather is better than ours. We are having a "noreaster" today so I hope we don't blow away:)

A Warm White Winter Welcome!

I did a new vignette on the credenza that you see entering the house. I am keeping to a snowy winter theme here too. I love this wreath with bird candle holder. I have an LED candle in it with a timer so it comes on every night.
 I used a snowy pinecone garland on a snowy white runner.
 Mercury glass votives cast a pretty glow too.
 Plain and snow covered pine trees line the back of the credenza. 2 pretty smelling candles also burn at night.


 These pretty white swans came from Longwood Gardens a few years ago.



 I love the detail on the candle holder.



 I hope if you come in you feel the welcome I want you to feel.
 
We survived the blizzard. LOL. They just plowed our driveway Sunday night so we will be able to get out. I got ALOT done this weekend: I am still doing my organizing and purging/donating that I want to get done this month.  I hope you are all OK after the storm! I am SO grateful that we did not lose our power! Have a beautiful day everyone!!!
XO, Pinky
